All that glitters

Eyelash Adhesive in Clear-White, Eye

Here comes the festive season; surely your agenda is already filled with cool cocktail receptions, elegant dinners and wild parties. But if you're afraid that your winter looks are too dark and dull to stand out, you can rely on glitter to add a touch of the fabulous. Here's some advice on how to apply it the right way.

When it comes to getting luminous, red-carpet-ready skin, highlighters are everything. To get that natural radiance, mix a cream illuminator with your moisturiser or foundation, and apply it all over your face to make your skin glow from the inside out. For a more sophisticated look, use your highlighter alone to enhance the tops of your cheekbones, shoulders and décolletage. (Don't dust any matte powder on or it'll lose its radiance.) You can also add a hint of illuminator on the bridge of your nose to make it look thinner. And before heading out to a party, be sure to slip a powder highlighter in your bag so you can get that extra shine whenever you want.
